TL;DR: The presence of considerable amounts of IgG-like material of Mr 100K in the serum of the camel, which is composed of heavy-chain dimers and devoid of light chains, but nevertheless have an extensive antigen-binding repertoire, opens new perspectives in the engineering of antibodies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sequence and structure of VH domain from naturally occurring camel heavy chain immunoglobulins lacking light chains
TL;DR: The camel hypervariable regions might adopt structures which differ substantially from the known canonical structures, thereby increasing the repertoire of the camel antigen binding sites within a VH, as in the DAW antibody.
